    I'm new here, and need some advice...

    I always burn my audio CD's using Nero, because it came with my computer. Nero is OK. My interest is centered on the preservation of my vinyls. I usually clean my WAVs,cut them to the right sector boundaries, and drag them onto Nero, and burn them.

    Recently, I've read so much about EAC, and I've used it to rip Audio Cd's (into an image(WAV) file with a cue sheet)and burn it with CDRwin. I'm so fascinated with this approach that I thought I should emulate a Virtual CD to burn my Vinyl WAV's in the same fashion .

    I was successful with this approach. I used Nero to burn my WAVs to HD as an image file, (.NRG) and mount the image with Daemon tools virtual drive, and let EAC read it and then make an image for CDRWin to burn. A long tedious process.

    Does it make any sense going this extra mile...? EAC can detect problem areas (like timing problems with your WAV)for you to correct if you wish. Has anybody tried this method? What's your opinion about it?

    EAC only makes sense to get as-good-as-possible extraction results from audio CDs. Once your vinyl rips are stored as .wav on your HDD (or otherwise, e.g. as .nrg image), EAC can't improve anything that has been broken before.

    Thank you... That makes real sense! Glad you shared your thoughts.
